[QUOTE="scn, post: 5605435, member: 1859"] It looks like they are really bad this year. A couple of weekends ago, my wife and I went over to my hunting lease in Stewart Co. to replace a tarp over my trailer. I had on some pants that had been dipped multiple times, so they didn't bother me. Even after spraying down with permanone, they ate my wife up. I think she ended up picking nine off of her. Most were the tiny seed tick size. Spraying heavy with the permithrin certainly helps.
